I am so so tired of pieces of shit. Really. It seems like they just keep on winning and they never get true consequences for their actions.

Just saw a post recently about the wife of Anthropic's CEO meeting with Epstein. I mean, it is always the same pieces of shit rising to the top. They are all in the same tribe. Just being pure evil for their own benefits. And it works! They just keep getting more "powerful" and "richer". We never revolt. We just keep giving them more and more money and power. It fucking works.

Society just broke me. Humans suck, we suck.

Me for Bill Gates and Mark Cuban, back when everyone loved them. Bill Gates was basically idolized on reddit, partaking on reddit santa and all that.

The thing is that I do not see AI "failing". Its current state is already goood enough to take many people's job, let us not kid ourselves. And also, even if the current iteration of AI "fails", there is always the argument that "we are just around the corner to AGI, wait for the new AI version!".

I honestly don't see AI going away, sadly. I fucking hate it. We built such a shitty fucking society. We could all have beautiful, chill lives, but nop. We suck.

The authority should be the people. A community is for the people, by the people. All a moderator needs to do is keep the community happy, by removing obvious spam. If a post is having engagement, even if it slightly breaks the rules, you let it be.

Again, a moderator is not a king. He is there to serve the will of the people. A community is made by the people/community, not by the moderator.

Hey there again! I tried the PT-PT dictionary and in terms of content, it is awesome. The formatting is a bit weird though. There is no formatting, everything is in the same phrase, different definitions in the same phrase gets annoying.

Is there a way to style it? For example, a word "XYZ: 1 bla bla 2 bla2 bla2" would look much better like so:

"XYZ:

  1. bla bla
  2. bla2 bla "

Is this something that can be done on my end? I use KOReader.

Americans are such a passive people. Their state can commit the worst atrocities, no peep from them. If this was any EU country, heads would be flying.

EDIT: After writing this, I thought and I disagree with my own statement. People suck. All people, generally. Some are a bit more passive than others, but generally, humanity sucks, people suck. We value comfort way too much and are not up to give up 0.1% of it, even in the face of atrocities. Principled people are very rare.

I find that "money" and "cash" should be the same community, if any. I just don't see enough content for each of them separately. I don't even see enough content overall. This splitting of communities into 100s different ones is, to me, the death by a thousand cuts.

I did a test a few months back. Just saying "I really like Luigi" gets you banned. It got me banned. However, if you say "I really like X", where X is a right-wing, pedophile, whoever it may be, does not. Say "I really like X", but substitute X for, for example, Putin. It will not get you banned. Reddit staff (and CEO) is right-wing, right-wing adjacent or right-wing acting. Fuck them.

Allegedly, killed a bad person. The "allegedly" refers to the idea that Luigi was the killer, not that the dead guy was a bad person.

The only way for society to improve, is for people to be willing to sacrifice their comfort with the goal of improving society. Luigi was willing to sacrifice his comfort for the better of everyone else. The opposite makes a bad person. The dead guy was willing to sacrifice everyone's comfort for improving his own life. One minimizes suffering. The other maximizes it.
